Vera Rubin is most known for her pioneering work in the field of astrophysics, particularly for her contributions to the study of galaxy rotation curves. Her observations provided strong evidence for the existence of dark matter, as she discovered that galaxies rotate at speeds that cannot be explained by the visible matter alone. Rubin's research fundamentally changed our understanding of the universe and highlighted the importance of dark matter in cosmology. She is also celebrated for her advocacy for women in science and her efforts to promote gender equality in the field.
